Distinct differences between Lumina Spark and other psychometrics
Big 5 and ‘Best of Jung’ – The model is based on the latest Big Five research paradigm, and can also be viewed through the popular Jungian lens.
Trait not Type – Lumina doesn’t label people or put them in a box, we call this trait, not type.
Embraces Paradox – Lumina doesn’t force choice of preferences, we call this “embracing paradox”. We independently measure the level to which each individual has opposite, competing and contradictory aspects of their personality e.g. their level of introversion and extraversion.
Measures 3 Personas – We measure three unique yet integrated views of you – the Underlying you, the Everyday you and the Overextended you.
Simplicity and Depth – We use colourful and practical language to create a set of ideas that people remember and can apply for years to come. The model can be used at a big picture 4 colour level, an 8 aspect level or a detailed full 24 quality level – dependant on your application.

Your Lumina Mandala
The starting point of a Lumina Spark professional development experience is a simple online questionnaire which enables participants to receive a highly personalised 38 page Lumina Portrait. This accurately describes persona, and provides a practical method for reading and adapting to others. The Portrait is used as the basis for on-going development programmes.
Lumina Spark is the next generation of professional development tools supporting individuals, teams and organisations to work more effectively and improve the bottom line. It is unique amongst psychometric tools because it avoids any stereotyping. It provides a highly interactive colourful framework for better self-understanding and helps people identify how to improve their working relationships with others. By applying the Lumina Spark model, learners unlock multiple business benefits.
The foundational Spark resources can be designed into different types of learner experiences such as short presentations, a broad range of training courses, inspirational coaching sessions or an in-depth group facilitation process.
Lumina Spark’s insight helps people become more influential with internal and external clients, colleagues and stakeholders.
